Uncommon grouping of ten items signed by eleven signers of the South Carolina Ordinance of Secession, which passed unanimously on December 20, 1860, and formally dissolved the union between South Carolina and the United States. Includes: Benjamin F. Dunkin (ALS), William W. Harllee (ALS), Isaac Hayne (ALS), John H. Honour (two ALSs), William F. Hutson (ALS), John A. Inglis (ALS), Benjamin Huger Rutledge (ALS), Ephraim Mikell Seabrook (ALS), and a document signed by Andrew Gordon Magrath, Christopher G. Memminger, and Thomas M. Hanckel. Also includes a secretarially signed John I. Ingram document. In overall very good to fine condition. As a concentrated assemblage tied directly to the first act of secession, the collection represents a rare and historically significant cross-section of the men who initiated the Confederacy.
From the collection of Mark S. Robbins.
